While working in the High Dependency Unit at one of the trust's hospitals, he also said: 'Skinny girls look good in clothes but fit girls look better naked.'

Hany claimed he had only made some of the comments and said it was because it was his first big job and he wanted to 'make friends and build a successful team'.

It was also said he asked another staff member whether they were from another planet after the comment was made by Howard Wolowitz (pictured) on The Big Bang Theory

He added that he had tried to meet Dr C in person to apologise fully for his behaviour but was unable to do so because he was due to go on annual leave.

When he returned from leave, his offer to meet with Dr C was declined.

Edward Doyle, panel chairman, told him: 'The panel noted in your evidence that you stated that you did not understand the phrase "total babe".

'Whilst acknowledging that English is not your first language, the panel noted that you have worked in the UK since 2001 and have described that you liked to watch American TV shows.

The panel considered it more likely than not that you understand this term and finds Dr C's evidence entirely credible and reliable.

'As regards the incident outside of Caffé Nero, the panel found this comment, which focused on Dr C's bottom, to be humiliating and inappropriate.

'This comment suggests you had been thinking about and looking at Dr C's bottom prior to making the comment. There was an intent by you to gain sexual gratification by telling Dr C that you found her bottom attractive.'

Mr Doyle also described Mrs B as a 'compelling witness'.

But he added: 'The panel is of the view that while the language in the email [to your secretary] was inappropriate in a work place, it notes that there was a culture of banter between some staff at the Trust as evidenced by a dirty joke circulated by a "round robin" email.

'On the basis of the evidence, the panel considered that this email could have been a joke.'

He concluded that Hany's behaviour was 'sexually motivated' and 'fell below the standards expected'

Hany was cleared of a further allegation of throwing paperwork at his secretary and telling her to 'deal with that'.

Rob Gillies, executive medical director of the trust, said in a statement: 'Tarek Salem Hany was dismissed from the trust for gross misconduct following a disciplinary hearing in February 2014.'

Hany has since attended a three 'Maintaining Proper Boundaries' courses.
